I downloaded 1.6.3 Professional, Mac OS X and copied the MetashapePro.app to the applications folder. When I try to open, I get a message that "MetashapePro.app" is damaged and can't be opened.

I redownloaded and tried again with same results. Perhaps the dmg is corrupt?

Hello Tom,

What is the exact message that you are observing, can you please provide the screenshot or just the text of the message?

[macsurveyr]

This is the message in case the screenshot does not show.

"MetashapePro.app" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the Trash.

So with 1.6.3 I get some hard reboots when building meshes from depth maps, it seems to trash the GPU driver and Win10 reboots.

Try to switch off Gatekeeper or SIP temporarily. No problem here with 10.15.4.

[macsurveyr]

Interesting. I always Right-Click on the app the first time to temporarily bypass Gatekeeper but for some reason that is not working. I never get the warning and the option to open anyway - only the message that the app is damaged.

Also running 10.15.4 and I have tried downloading and opening on two different machines.

Anybody got any other advice?

[Alexey Pasumansky]

Hello Tom,

Have you copied the license file to the app bundle contents before running it for the first time?

[macsurveyr]

Hello Alexey,

I have done so in the past but in the recent past, that has actually caused the issue so no, I did not do so with 1.6.3.

I have tried rebooting and a few other things and finally tried using the terminal command "xattr -cr /Applications/MetaBeta/MetashapePro.app" and that has worked.

I am not sure I want to have to continue to do so, but perhaps it helps troubleshoot what may be going on.

The 1.6.3 seems to be not properly signed/notarized:
❯ spctl -a -vv MetashapePro.app                                                 
MetashapePro.app: invalid signature (code or signature have been modified)

[Dmitry Semyonov]

Hello Tom,

The signature of Mac OS packages should be fixed in Metashape 1.6.3 build 10638. Can you please try the updated version?

[Dmitry Semyonov]

Hello Willi,

Can you please check if mesh generation from depth maps works fine in the updated Metashape 1.6.3 build 10638?

If GPU driver still crashes, please let us know exact NVIDIA driver version you are using.

Also it will be helpful if you could provide a Metashape processing log up to the moment of the driver crash. You can save it by enabling Write log to file option in the Metashape Preferences dialog before starting processing.
